Dagwood goes to the dogs as he tries to get a $50 loan re-payed and ends up with a great Dane instead. This leads to Blondie visiting a divorce lawyer after chaos in the neighborhood and turmoil in the house. A very funny entry in the series has Baby Dumpling talking in slang, Blondie turning his bicycle into a unicycle and neighbors giving Dagwood bills far over the $50 he lent in the first place.
Some fantastic character performers pop up, including once again Charles Lane as a washing machine salesman more ignored than the Maytag repair man, William Frawley as a rival in the dog show Dagwood enters, Almira Sessions as a broom swinging neighbor and Edgar Kennedy as a slow-burning veterinarian. The vet scene is highlighted by a visit to the maternity ward where newly born puppies gain a ton of ooh's and ah's.
Singleton starts off as overly bossy towards Arthur Lake's Dagwood, but of course, she comes around, even singing to the lovable great Dane. A hysterical scene has Singleton dealing not only with salesman Lanez but sassy Simms, a door repairman and the always unlucky postman, Irving Bacon. The episode is touching, funny and loving to man's best friend who ultimately ends up playing marriage counselor as well.
